Anyone know anything about the new 1.6L BEGI Supercharger???
Sorry if I'm missing something here, but they just posted a new article on BEGI's site *yesterday* concerning development of an M45/M60 coldside supercharger system for 1.6L cars.
Anyone know anything I don't?
Sounds pretty sweet, as most stuff from BEGI usually is.
TIA,
Zac

I was going to work with Corky on a new coldside kit but we are at a stand still because of the autocross season. Plans are a a two TB system on a coldside 62 blower intercooled. We are also looking at the 90 blower. Now this is all for the 1.8l, I'm not a part of the 1.6l development. He is looking at 300HP (built motor of course), and Corky rarely doesnt meet his goals.

To cut through every one's BS, I think the new systems are very nice. It will be cool to finally see a big HP supercharger system for the 1.6's.
Honestly the only reason I ever ditched my blower was because I couldn't make near the power i was craving.
But going turbo wasn't all bad I guess

Damn guys, I work at trying to use good English. Please point out my errors, as I was at least once educatable. It is possible the problem is I are an inguneer.
Now, I probably ought not to put a 350 HP CAPABLE INTERCOOLER in a 300 hp system for fear of someone thinking the IC will make boost all by itself. Still working on that one.
BTW, an AC consumes more power than can be made by the air it can cool. Try multiplying the CFM consumed by the air density (.07 ) and see what kind of mass the situation is dealing with. These things can produce flow rates that would consume about twice your body weight per minute. The AC would be a bit pressed......
Initially, no SC's with IC's. A tick later...
